One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

LS, was it an ALX200 Dart? i.e. 3610 or 3601?

B7RLE's seem to be reported most days on the 957
The spare unbranded E400's at BC are mainly used on the 60 (And 24) so E400's are not really unusual on the 60?

Today 1894 is on WA 8/89

Omnilinks aren't that unusual on the 8/89, they get reported on here all the time...

I live on the route and i can say they are unusual so thats why i reported it on here :) Plus the board it was on i believe is virtually always a B7RLE :)

Correct, one P.M. X64 is on the same board as an 829 journey. I don't know the details of the running board though

Thanks for that :) I thought i had heard or read somewhere that the afternoon boarf of the 829 does an X64.

I presume it works like in the morning but instead doing the X64 instead of a 9
